Proving cleantech efficiency with X-ray

Amminex

Amminex Emissions Technology A/S (“Amminex”) is a Danish based company with a parent organization Faurecia. It is providing a new and unique technology and solution for automotive emissions control. The technology, the Ammonia Storage and Delivery System (ASDSTM) significantly reduces the amount of NOx released by diesel cars and trucks with SCR catalysts, which is a focus area for the automotive industry today.

Challenge

 

The challenge in the study on "Reducing NOx exhaust from diesel engines" lies in finding an effective and efficient method to mitigate the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from diesel engines. NOx emissions are a significant environmental concern due to their contribution to air pollution and associated health and environmental issues.

Collaboration

 

Amminex Emissions Technology, in partnership with the DTU Imaging Facility and supported by the "ESS and MAX IV as Growth Engines for the Capital Region of Denmark" project, is working together to develop AdAmmine, a groundbreaking material for reducing NOx emissions from diesel engines. This collaborative effort combines industry expertise, research capabilities, and regional support to tackle the challenge of cleaner diesel engine emissions.

Results

 

Amminex Emmisions Technology has developed a safe and Efficient material where NH3 is bound in the salt AdAmmine. The mass uptake of NH3, the temperature and the 3D structure of AdAmmine were measured during saturation at the DTU Imaging Facility
